{"Image ImageDescription": "KEBUMEN, INDONESIA - JULY 22: Indonesian Banser recruits relax after a training session during a rigorous three day induction course on July 22, 2017 in Kebumen, Indonesia.  Banser, the security unit of Indonesia's largest Muslim organization, Nahdatul Ulama (NU), has been on the rise to defend against Islamic fundamentalist groups as worries grow over the rise of ultra-conservative forces in the world's most populous Muslim country. Claiming a membership of 50 million, the \"militant moderates\" from the Nahdlatul Ulama are dedicated to supporting Indonesia's national unity and multi-religious character while combating conservative Islamic organizations, which have recently become a more vocal force in Indonesian politics and culture. Indonesia's central government recently announced a decree that will make it easier for President Joko Widodo to disband religious and civil society organizations in an apparent effort to challenge and contain hard-line Islamic groups since their rise in popularity late last year. Nahdlatul Ulama, a deeply pluralistic organization, was founded in 1926 and currently contributes in charity activities which has built hundreds of schools and hospitals.
